Air conditioning servicing in Charing

How we handle air conditioning servicing in Charing

People in Charing book a service for all sorts of reasons: smells at start-up, a unit that struggles on hot days, drips from the indoor unit, or a service that’s overdue. The same full set of checks applies whatever prompted the call. Typical jobs include frost or ice on the refrigerant pipes and water dripping from the indoor unit, across ceiling cassettes, ducted systems and VRF systems.

A yearly service suits most systems around Charing, and regular servicing can be a condition of some manufacturers’ warranties.

We are an F-Gas certified company, NICEIC approved for electrical work, MCS certified for heat pumps and a Checkatrade member. Our engineers hold the F-gas qualifications needed to work on refrigerant.

What air conditioning won’t do

Before booking, it helps to know what’s not included:

  • Pipework or drainage that was badly installed in the first place
  • Lost refrigerant, where the fix is a leak repair

Not sure which it is? You can give us a ring on 07833 053749 or write to us at info@aircondoctor.co.uk and we’ll tell you honestly before booking.

What the work covers

  • Multi-split systems
  • Air-to-air heat pumps

  • Ceiling cassettes
  • Wall-mounted split systems

Air conditioning servicing in Charing: the local picture

The last census (2021) found about 78% of households in detached or semi-detached houses. Let us know where the outdoor unit sits and whether a ladder is needed to reach it. Central Charing is inside a conservation area. Historic England lists about 66 buildings and structures within half a mile of the centre of Charing, including Palace Farmhouse (grade I). Should a unit ever need replacing on a listed building or in a conservation area, ask us about consent first.

How it works

Wherever the system can be run before we leave, we run it and check it in operation. Then we show you what we’ve done and answer any questions, and anything that needs attention later is pointed out. All told, the work takes an hour or so for a single wall-mounted unit, longer for a multi-split system. Getting to the outside of the property matters more than parking in a place like Charing.

  1. First, we agree a time and confirm the cost of the service.
  2. Before any cleaning, the system is run so we can see how it behaves.
  3. Then the cleaning: filters, coils, fan and the drain line.
  4. We check the wiring, controls and refrigerant circuit, and leak check systems that need it.
  5. We run the system again and leave you a service record.

Before we arrive

  • Let us know where we can park and unload
  • Move furniture away from the wall where we’ll be working
  • Give us access to the outside wall, roof or yard where the outdoor unit sits

Rented and managed buildings

Running several properties is easier with one contractor. Our area covers Greater London and the South East, so work at different addresses can be planned together and kept on a regular cycle.

Landlords, letting agents and managing agents book us, not only the people who live or work in the property. Let us know who will give us access and who the records should go to, and we’ll keep everyone informed.

Common questions in Charing

Is Charing in your area for air conditioning servicing?

We do: Charing falls inside our working area. Get in touch with the details and we reply the same working day.

Is Charing within the area you cover?

Yes, and the size of the place makes no difference to how we work. Send a few details and pictures, and we reply the same working day.

Do you survey before quoting?

Yes. Photos often do the job for simple work, while larger systems and faults that need testing are seen on site.

Will I get records for the system?

Yes. It’s your proof of what was done: a dated note of the work, with refrigerant details where they apply.

How long will the engineer be here for the service?

The visit takes an hour or so for a single wall-mounted unit, longer for a multi-split system. If we find something that needs repairing, we explain it and price it before doing anything else, so give us a ring on 07833 053749 to arrange a time.

Is a regas part of an air conditioning service?

We check refrigerant performance on every service, but adding gas is separate work. If it’s low, a leak repair comes first and the regas follows with a fixed price for each step.

What’s included in an air conditioning service?

A clean of the parts that collect dirt and a check of the parts that do the work. That means filters, coils and drains, plus electrical connections, controls and refrigerant performance, and F-gas leak checks where they apply.

Do you need air conditioning servicing in Charing?

Outdoor units sit in the weather all year. Leaves, dirt and debris collect on the coil and around the casing and that restricts the airflow it relies on.

What we are most often called about:

  • Humming, rattling or squealing from the system
  • A unit showing a fault code
  • Air conditioning that isn’t cooling as well as it did

For an office near Charing station, servicing can be booked before or after working hours.

“Excellent service from start to finish. Two wall-mounted units installed in our home. Clean, tidy work: they protected all the floors and left no mess. The systems work brilliantly. Would highly recommend.”
